Issues fixed

Massive Flickering and Stuttering

The game uses a Vsync (Enable by default) to limit itself, but if a high-frequency update monitor is used, the game will present flickering and stuttering problems.
Limit the Framerate to 60FPS[citation needed]
Set refresh rate on 60hz[citation needed]
